A real collector’s treat—this isn’t something you’ll find on store shelves. Recently disgorged, this traditional method sparkling wine spent 16 years on its lees. No typo—16 years, my friend. Like a true Champagne, it offers tremendous complexity, razor-sharp acidity, and seamless transitions from entry to finish. The nose shows fresh croissant, pear, green apple, jasmine, and salty ocean spray. The palate is generous and soft, with lively, well-dispersed bubbles. Flavours of Meyer lemon, yellow apple, vanilla custard, almond cookie, orange peel, white cranberry, and a long, salty finish. (Carl Boucher, June 6, 2025) 120 cases made
